Millennium Development Goals Plus (MDG+)

Thailand is on track to meet all of its MDG commitments by or before 2015.

As a result, the government has committed itself to an additional set of more-ambitious targets, called Millennium Development Goals Plus (MDG+). These are listed below (with target dates in brackets):

Poverty• Reduce poverty to less than 4 per cent (2009)

Education• Achieve universal secondary education (2015)

Gender• Double the proportion of women in the national parliament, sub-district administrative authorities and executive positions in the civil service (2006)
